Verdigris-the condition of impermanence and interaction among elements-ushers us into thisshort story collection. These eleven stories dive into the liquid state of a shifting reality. Fromlyricism to absurdity, reality gets defined by characters' emotional atmospheres. Their past isalways with them, sometimes nipping at their heels; at other times, present possibilities takeover. Together, they evoke a sense of dislocation by characters who are perpetual wanderers andoutsiders-by choice or circumstances-whether arriving at a village in Brazil, contending witha mother-in-law in Spain, or hosting ghosts in Czechia.An English teacher in Bratislava struggles to trust her artistic voice outside her expatriatecommunity. Fascinated and stumped by her adopted new home, she tries to find a way to see andcreate anew.Estranged sisters meet each other from their separate vantage points, glimpsing the cracks oftheir own brittle identities.The scent of jasmine opens the reel of memory to a time when a woman felt more alive, freer, ifnot happier. The same character returns to the village she once lived, finding that once you go,you're not supposed to return. Others are ripe for change, turning arrivals and departures intocatalysts.
